Relive the magic of our inaugural Retro Factory pride party and REVISIT: 1983

East Village, Manhattan - Theatre C, Zach Job, Chad Ryan, and Jason Barker in association with Daniel Nardicio Productions and Long Island CIty Artists, Inc., have come together to create a new series of retro-themed dance parties called RETRO FACTORY. The past smashes into the present, in this series that brings long-ago eras (and not so distant ones) into an all-night-into-morning affair. The night will be filled with with surprise immersive live performances and visuals in the style of The Donkey Show and Here Lies Love. The capsule RETRO FACTORY events will take place at Daniel Nardicio's Bedlam in the East Village and will give you a taste of our larger events in our Long Island City warehouse location and give you a peek into what we have in store for our next large scale event.

We #FlashbackFriday to "1983" - an homage to the legendary gay dance party held at The Pyramid Club in the East Village until 2011. This is an 80's party reimagined from a gay perspective, and encompassing the grit and sex appeal of the east village.

“1983” Pride 2017

Our first event set out to create something missing in New York City nightlife: A space for queer people of every demographic that could be celebrated and who could witness their story reinterpreted through dance and a party with a throw back twist. 1983 was a huge success and turned into quite the amazing and inspiring night!! We got to participate in and celebrate queer art made by queer artists. It was something we at Retro Factory are immensely proud of and will strive to continue to produce.
